Health Workers can make a difference
In both developed and developing countries, health professionals
are in a unique position to push for change.
Health workers can act as individuals;
through their employing organisations and professional associations;
through civil society organisations promoting health or advocating
on behalf of the health of poor and vulnerable groups.
For many ideas on how to make a difference see Global
Health Action 2005-2006
Help us promote the Global Health Watch in your region
You can do this by:

A central aim of the Watch is to encourage national and regional
groupings of health professionals, in collaboration with other NGOs
and other sections of civil society, to organise their own health
watches to monitor the actions of their governments, the private
sector and the international community, and to challenge them as
required. This is an important ingredient to the social mobilisation
required to promote political change in favour of improved health
and reduced inequalities.
Some examples already existing are:
